Author and former Psychologies Editor Suzy Walker talks big leaps, heart leaps, meditation and more as she shares her ideal and actual self and Self care practices

Feel Better Every Day

Suzy Walker (formerly Suzy Greaves) is a freelance journalist, writer, editor, coach and author of two coaching books: The Big Peace and Making The Big Leap. She was named as one of the top ten coaches in the UK!

Trained as a journalist, Suzy has written for everyone from The Sunday Times to Cosmo.

Editor-in-Chief of Psychologies for 8 years, she ran a dynamic virtual editorial team, created 1000 'happiness clubs' globally, and interviewed some of the most inspiring self-development greats in the world - from Brené Brown to Oprah.

She recently simplified her life and moved back to the wild coast of Northumberland and now works as a freelance journalist, writing inspiring stories for national newspapers and magazines. She writes a weekly 'Big Happiness Interview' talking to the wisest experts on the planet for Metro.co.uk and run The Heart Leap Club on Substack, a self development and writing community where we all endeavour to make baby steps to feeling happier every day, as well as getting our writing done and out there in the world. (I'm a member too and it's brilliant.)

Suzy is currently writing her third book about the year she spent on a canal boat with her teenage son.

She is also founder of the Alnwick Story Fest, a book and film festival lighting up creativity in the wilds of Northumberland.

Have you ever let yourself get CURIOUS (with love and compassion) about your own anger and other emotions?

Let me know in the comments!

WHO AM I?

I'm your host, Eve Menezes Cunningham, author of 365 Ways to Feel Better: Self-care Ideas for Embodied Wellbeing and Editor-in-Chief of the Irish Journal of Counselling and Psychotherapy.

I'm a trauma therapist (with lived experience), supervisor and Self care coach (integrating yoga therapy, NLP, EFT and crystals as appropriate) helping people connect with and take better care of their Self. I run Feel Better Every Day with Eve Menezes Cunningham (aka selfcarecoaching.net).

I started The Feel Better Every Day Podcast because I realised that even with the focus of my work being self and Self care, I often struggle. And so do so many of my colleagues! We're all human! So I interviewed several of them including neuroscientists, authors writing about health and wellbeing, fitness professionals, therapists, coaches, energy workers and medical professionals.

We ALL have gaps and even gulfs between what we would LOVE to be doing for ourselves each day and what we actually do. My hope with each episode is that you'll go easier on yourself and do something rather than nothing from your own ideal self or Self care repertoire. Create a life you don't need to retreat from! Let me know how you get on! I really love hearing from y'all.
